Jayquan Sanders — 16 year old boy

A state so cruel
Floating between
Heaven and hell
Holding on to hope but
Experiencing a slow farewell
Brain death
Toys with your heart and head
Are you even alive?
Or are you already dead?
Wishing that there was more to do
Knowing your fate
has been decided for you
So kiss him goodnight
And be strong
Knowing God will come along

back to today
